Default closing the door

I know this sounds silly, but how do you do it? There is no good place to grab on to when exiting the car. I was using the alluminum strip of the door handle but I leave finger prints, but do I want to leave prints on the paint? not the window?

Or do I don one white glove to close the door?

The door closes easily so just use the top corner of the door otherwise I use the handle and live with the prints.

I also use the "inside" part of the door handle. The door closes with just a gentle fingertip push, any fingerprint is not visible. So simple.

HA HA HA!!! I gripe at my boyfriend for leaving fingerprints on my car when he gets out. And it's not even my Z!!! Glad to see there are people out there as neurotic as I am.
